I know there is time as a special dimension and local curves, but my statement stands.-And none of them mathematicians or physicists. First, as George pointed out long ago, there is no true constant of PI in our universe. This is absolute fact in physics. This single observation by itself is enough to discard our universe being R3 (Euclidean 3d). You confuse this with the fact that every multidimensional space has a Euclidean space. This is not the same thing. Every physics textbook on the planet stresses the fact that Euclidean geometry only approximates reality on a very grandiose scale. 
 When applied over spheres and 3d ellipses, R3 Euclidean geometry fails to explain reality. (Under FLRW model.) -Our universe is flat; but that very important fact that we have no actual constant of PI as well that the Pythagorean Theorem does not hold--means that something is amiss...
